Patient's question:
After the abortion, there has been continuous lochia, and the lower abdomen has been constantly. I don't know if my body has fully recovered. What color is lochia after an abortion?Doctor's answer:
I'm happy to serve you! Postpartum lochia is usually not dark red, similar to menstrual blood, but the amount is generally never less than your usual menstrual flow. The duration is typically around one week. If there is continuous lochia, and the duration is less than one week, accompanied by a dull ache in the lower abdomen, it is recommended to seek further medical examination at a formal hospital. Medication treatment may be necessary if needed. Avoid spicy foods and maintain a light diet, while also refraining from sexual activity.
